Straight: After the Evil Overlord hits the Earth with his global Freeze Ray, fierce snowstorms appear all over the planet.

Exaggerated: After the Evil Overlord hits the Earth with his global Freeze Ray, the planet is covered with six feet of ice.

Downplayed: After the Evil Overlord hits Earth with his global Freeze Ray, the area where the focus is was raining, then it turns to snow. It shows another shot of people on the snowless beach shivering up.

Justified: Before attacking the Earth with his Freeze Ray, the Evil Overlord vaporized the planet's ice caps to increase the atmospheric humidity.

Inverted: The global Freeze Ray blasts away moisture, so it gets drier as it gets colder.
